Since April 15, RFI has offered you a collective investigation into the death of Idriss Déby, the Chadian president killed in action last year during clashes with FACT rebels in the Kanem region.

In the first two parts, we explained to you the causes and circumstances of his death, including the uncertainties that still surround certain details.

Yesterday Sunday, in the 3rd part, it was a question of the first hours of the transition, of the way in which the soldiers of the CMT took power despite the constitutional rules.

Normally, Idriss Déby dead, it is the president of the National Assembly, Haroun Kabadi, who should have ensured the transition.

But he decided to give up.

The one who is today the President of the National Transitional Council, the Transitional Parliament,

and secretary general of the MPS, the party of the late Idriss Déby, explains this morning on our antenna.

At the microphone of François Mazet, he also evokes the national dialogue to come and the question of keeping the son of Idriss Déby in power.
